These things work really well, I think I've gone through about 6 now though. We're never going back! WE LOVE THESE!

Just buy these instead of the red or white heat bulbs! This has worked perfectly since the day I got it and my Chinese water dragons seem to love it. I prefer this over the “stick on the side” heaters because it gives my boys the option to bask under the heat or not. They're an excellent alternative to a traditional heat "bulb".

I think I'll still be buying them though. They fit in the same ceramic socket / fixture that a regular heat bulb would use, so you don't need to get anything extra/special for your brooder setup.
Picture of our brooder setup (that's a 45 gallon watering trough for size reference, and quart-sized feeder/waterer units). I am in the process of building a 4’ x 2’ enclosure for my boys, so I purchased two to cover a larger area than what they have now.
Love that this will fit in the short housing but the heat doesn’t seem to radiate very far. This is the first time that I have experienced a complete short in the lamp. Just something to note. It blew my breaker thankfully but I do not understand why something designed to output heat would have so much solder on the contacts.
